PIONEERS OF WELL CONTROL
Cudd Well Control, has a long-standing tradition of quality work, delivering rapid emergency
response, well control experience and engineering services to locations around the world since
1977. Bobby Joe Cudd became a true legend in the well control industry by pioneering many of the
well control techniques commonly used today. One of his most famous principles was that “in well
control, we only play aces, straights, and flushes.”
While the industry has evolved since our company began, we remain true to our pioneering
founder’s vision and principles. We continue to only play the best hands by hiring the best
people and using the best equipment. That’s how Cudd continues to solve complex well control
incidents and also to perform the best front-end well control engineering and planning.

We help you prepare for emergency situations through advanced planning and various well control training programs to uncover vulnerabilities and establish procedures for a safer working environment.
